4. Misuse

4.1 How to deal with the situation that the touch screen cannot be touched or the touch freezes after downloading the programmed program?

Turn the No. 2 DIP switch behind the screen to the ON position, and then power on to see the copyright on the last line of the screen, under normal circumstances, it should be displayed as 2004, if it shows 22002 or 2002, it means that the wrong software is downloaded or the software version is lower, please re-download it with the newer version of EB8000.

4.2 Is there a blue screen, white screen, black screen and other abnormal phenomena on the touch screen?

This phenomenon is usually caused by using the wrong software download, and you can try to fix it by re-downloading it with a newer version of EB software.

4.3 Why view previous event records? Can only turn up, can't turn down?

This is caused by the software setting error, with the multi-state setting component in the increment and decrement control to scroll up and down, it should be noted that when setting the decrement, it is easy to mistake the lower limit value as the upper value, and the correct setting should be 0.

4.4 Why won't the moving graphics move?

This is because the control address is incorrect, there is a register address in the properties of the moving graph itself, but the address cannot be used when controlling its movement, and the address that controls its movement should be added by 1 on the basis of the address of the graph itself. For example, if the moving shape property is set to d0, then the value in d1 controls the range of movement of the shape.
